Creating Resources

You can allow resources to be created using the creatable and notCreatable methods on the schema builder.

Optionally pass a closure that returns a boolean value.

$type->creatable();

$type->creatable(function (Context $context) {
    return $context->getRequest()->getAttribute('user')->isAdmin();
});

Customizing the Model

When creating a resource, an empty model is supplied by the adapter. You may wish to override this and provide a custom model in special circumstances. You can do so using the model method:

$type->model(function (Context $context) {
    return new CustomModel;
});

Events

creating

Run after values have been set on the model, but before it is saved.

$type->creating(function (&$model, Context $context) {
    // do something
});

created

Run after the model is saved, and before it is shown in a JSON:API document.

$type->created(function (&$model, Context $context) {
    $context->meta('foo', 'bar');
});
